Li Xingci was climbing up the steps of a mountain full of spiritual energy.

All the disciples passing by greeted him from a distance and called him "senior brother".

Li Xingci looked indifferent, walking through several lofts in the forest, and stopped at a loft with misty clouds on the top of the mountain.

There is a huge plaque hanging on the attic with three large golden characters: Baodan Pavilion.

There are three floors in Baodan Pavilion. The first floor is where elixirs are sold. Qinglong Sect disciples can use spiritual stones to buy the elixirs they need.

The second floor is where elixirs are sold. Usually only elders go up there. After all, most disciples don't have the financial resources to buy elixirs.

As for the third floor, it is where Elder Qin, the only alchemist of Qinglong Sect, makes alchemy.

He came here today just to find this Elder Qin.

When Li Muwen saw the plot of the novel where the protagonist fell off a cliff, he thought it was a bit cliche, so he didn't subscribe.

Now he has tasted the bitter pill of skipping chapter subscriptions, and has no idea what adventures the protagonist has under the Soul-Desolating Cliff.

Just by looking at the chapter names, we can probably tell that the protagonist joins the Sword Sect.

If he wanted to survive, he could only do his best to prepare backup plans.

Of course, he didn't watch the previous plot for nothing.

For example, Elder Qin can use some of his little tricks.

Baodan Pavilion, third floor.

An alchemy furnace half a man's height is placed in the center, and the wooden shelves around it are filled with various elixirs.

Next to the alchemy furnace, an old man with an immortal spirit was meditating with his eyes closed.

Li Xingci took a few steps forward and saluted.

"I've met Elder Qin."

Elder Qin remained motionless and did not open his eyes: "What's the matter?"

"Disciple wants two pills."

"Go to the second floor to buy elixirs."

"If I don't buy it, I'll take it for free."

"Are you kidding me?" Elder Qin opened his eyes.

Li Xingci lowered his voice slightly,

"If the sect master knew that Elder Qin was secretly selling the sect's top elixirs——"

Elder Qin suddenly turned his head and cut off his words.

"How dare you threaten me!"

Next, Li Xingci did not speak, but used voice transmission.

"If Madam knew that you were keeping a concubine in Qingshan Town..."

Elder Qin's face was immediately filled with a smile, he stood up and asked softly.

"I wonder what elixir Xingci needs?"

"This disciple wants a Dragon-Strengthening Pill and a Gold-Condensing Pill."

"Easy to say."

If the other party can name Qingshan Town, he knows that his secret has been exposed.

Elder Qin happily took out two bottles of elixirs, one white and one black, two porcelain bottles.

There is a label on each of the two porcelain bottles: Kanglong Pill, Ningjin Pill.

After taking Kanglong Pill, you can explode several times your own strength.

There are no side effects and the effect lasts for a day.

This elixir has no effect on monks at the Golden elixir stage and above, but for Li Xingci at the Foundation Establishment stage, it is a life-saving elixir.

The Gold Condensing Pill is used when breaking through. He is now at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment, and it won't take long for him to condense the Gold Pill.

This elixir can greatly increase the success rate of condensing golden elixirs, but it is too precious and he cannot afford it.

Li Xingci glanced at the two porcelain bottles.

"If something unexpected happens to me after taking the elixir, a photo-taking bead will be delivered to Madam immediately."

After all, the elixir has to be eaten into the stomach, so he has to guard against it.

Elder Qin is famous for being henpecked, but he is not so honest in private.

Who would have thought of it if they hadn't experienced God's perspective.

An alchemist with an immortal spirit is nothing more than a donkey dung egg with a shiny surface.

Elder Qin's eyes flickered, and the photo beads could record both images and sounds at the same time.

He did often use photo beads to record his happiness on the bed curtain, but he never thought that one day this thing would also become his handle.

He took out a red porcelain vase from the ring and put away the golden elixir in the black porcelain vase.

Li Xingci's eyes were slightly sharp, and the words Ningjindan were also written on the red porcelain bottle.

Good guy!

There was indeed something wrong with the bottle of golden elixir just now.

For Elder Qin, these two pills are not very valuable.

But being held by others all the time makes me feel uneasy after all. Only a dead person can shut up forever.

He didn't know whether Li Xingci really had a photo bead in his hand.

However, he didn't dare to gamble.

"Hand over the shadow bead." Elder Qin stretched out his hand.

Li Xingci spread his palms.

"As long as I live, the Shadow Bead will be safe."

Are you kidding me, if I hand over the photo bead, will he still survive?

Elder Qin's beard was so angry that his beard flew up, and his calculations were spotless.

Li Xingci did not push beyond the limits.

"Don't worry, with these two pills, this disciple will never mention this matter again."

The rabbit bites when he is anxious. He cannot push too hard.

What's more, he didn't even have a shadow bead in his hand.

Elder Qin threw out the two bottles of elixirs and began to issue orders to expel the guests.

"Aren't you leaving yet?"

Li Xingci put two bottles of elixirs into the Qiankun bag, but had no intention of leaving.

"There is one more thing I need Elder Qin to help me with."

Elder Qin's liver trembled when he heard that he wanted to help.

"What else?"

"I want to enter Weiyang Palace to meet the empress."

"Are you crazy!"

"Elder Qin even the sect leader's wife——"

Shhh——

Elder Qin raised his index finger in front of his mouth, making a silent sound.

"Speak well if you have something to say."

The Empress has an organization called the Embroidered Clothes Messengers, most of whom are top masters and assassins.

Of course, some of the Embroidered Clothes Messengers are those responsible for supervision, investigation, and intelligence collection.

They are hidden in various sects in Jiuzhou. They may be elders or disciples.

The elder Qin in front of him is an embroidered messenger.

The empress doesn't just meet anyone.

Weiyang Palace is equivalent to the imperial palace in Yunzhou, where the empress handles affairs.

The messengers of embroidered clothes are the best pass, because they have tokens given by the empress.

Tokens are divided into three levels: high-level tokens, mid-level tokens, and low-level tokens.

This actually reflects the degree of emphasis.
